well...today was another quiet day at home.
did go to the hospital at 8am as usual
only to discover that mr ah-see was holding clinic in bedford and there was basically
nothing else for me to do the entire day
so I headed back.

well...today was one of those days when my level of morality was tested.
On the way up broad street onto the bus stop where I was to catch the no.12 to the hospital
I passed a sick sea gull that could not walk.
It was lying pitifully on the sidewalk without any idea what was going to happen to it.
I steeled my heart and walked by it.
At the traffic lights at the junction where I was to catch my bus I passed a blind man
waiting to cross the street.
I walked by him.

By the time I got on the bus I was feeling really wretched at myself.
And I truly felt glad when I saw someone going up to help the blind man
as the bus drove past him.
There are people in this world who are not as wretched as me. I'm not surprised.

When I was returning from the hospital, I passed the injured bird again.
This time I knew that I could not afford to stain my soul once again by leaving it there.
I got the bus back and brought a box and gloves to bring it back to the halls
where I thought I could look after it.
Back at halls, the porters saw the bird and I told them that I had brought it from Broad Street in town.
One of them remarked that ' You should have just left it there'
I could think of nothing to reply.
Thankfully, the one of the managers of the halls was kind enough
and he helped phone the RSPCA and the Society for prevention of cruelty to birds.
They came soon after to take the poor gull.

''you should have just left it there.'
I just couldn't bring myself to say anything in response to that.
Perhaps it was because I did not think that organism worthy enough to have me explain my intentions. His heart was too cold and hard to have understood anyway.

Perhaps if I hadn't done that,
I wouldn't be able to face myself and all the wretchedness that exists in me.
